Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) Despite being the most capable cavalry leader of his generation, Sir John French has always aroused controversy.

But French has another side, revealed in his private papers-- a side filled with affairs and personal torment. An esteemed Professor of Military and Security Studies tells French's compelling, dramatic story.

Fatal Avenue is both a history and a guide -- a unique study of a region that has witnessed more bitter military conflict than any other area of its...
